RECIPE BY: ~Rita~

Onion, Rosemary, Sage and Thyme flavor these biscuits making theme wonderful for the Holiday table. Also great for Thanksgiving because these biscuits can be made ahead and frozen up to a week ahead. When ready to serve, thaw, wrap in foil, and heat in a 325º oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

Ingredients

  • cup onion, chopped
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk, chilled
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh sage, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, minced
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled cut into small pieces
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Preheat oven to 425°. Heat a small skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add onion; cook 6 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Spoon onion into a blender. Add buttermilk and process until smooth. Cool.
    2. 2
      Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine flours and next 5 ingredients (flours through herbs) in a food processor with a metal blade; pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add onion mixture; stir just until moist.
    3. 3
      Turn dough out onto a heavily floured surface (dough will be sticky), and knead lightly 5 times with floured hands. Roll dough to a 1/2-inch thickness; cut into 10 biscuits with a 3-inch biscuit cutter.
    4. 4
      Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 12 minutes or until golden.

    Made these for supper last night to have with French Canadian ragout. The flavour was exceptional, however, they did not rise very much, nor were they quite cooked through. I will definitely make them again, but will add 1/2 tsp. baking soda with the dry ingredients and two more tablespoons of buttermilk and see what happens. I may try cranking the oven up to 450 as well. Thanks.

    mmmm DH said these were the best biscuits I've made! they were delicius. A little picky to make but worth it. Love the combination of onions and herbs! I did make mine a little bigger and just got 9. I guess because they were a little bigger I had to bake them for 17 minutes. Lovely biscuits that i will be making again, thanks for posting.
